A MOTHER'S LOVE 3/23/2011

A mother is a blessing
she gives life and she nurtures
She teaches right from wrong
she goes without so we can have
And doesn't blink an eye.

Mother's love is unconditional
she is there when we're in need
She always knows what's on our minds
our emotions she can read.

So please don't take your Mom for granted
she won't always be around
Give her all the love that's in your heart
and give it to her now.

MATTERS OF THE HEART 3/23/2011

Our hearts say yes
but our minds say no
Oh what a state we're in
the love we give
Is not returned
a dilemma we can't win.

Matters of the heart are hard
we know what we should do
Don't settle for less
and don't be afraid
To find true love anew.

ALONE TIME 3/23/2011

To sit alone in a quiet room
is music to my ears
Listening to nothing, speaking no sound
no worries, no cares, no fears.

Quiet time is important
to regroup, meditate or just be
Time alone, a nice walk, a nice soothing bath
it's all about being free.

THE FLU 3/18/2011

It engulfs my body from head to toe
my body is aching and I move very slow
My throat is burning and my eyes are a puff
chills and fever surround me
I've had quite enough.

I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't breathe or smell
and to put it quite mildly, I feel like hell
The pain that I feel you just can't believe
for a speedy recovery I constantly grieve.

A week goes by and then there is two
at last I'm starting to feel anew
When all of a sudden the cough hits like a storm
at night it's the worse but it's still there in the morn.

Cough drops, cough syrup, aspirin and vicks
I just can't remember when I've been this sick
Lord please, please, please get rid of this mess
it's time that I started feeling my best.
